Count the Number of Sides of 2D Shapes

In this activity, we will count the number of sides on each shape and answer the questions.

Example

Answer

There is 1 shape above with three sides. This is the last shape - the orange triangle.

There are 0 shapes above with four sides.

There are 2 shapes above with more than five sides. They are the red and the light blue shapes. They both have six sides, so they are hexagons.

The rest of the shapes above have five sides. A 5-sided shape is called a pentagon.

Let's have a go at counting sides in the following questions - write your answers as a number.
